I would love to know if they help control the buffeting that happens when only the driver's window is open. That drives me nuts and I end up leaving the window closed to avoid it. For now, the only way I've found to stop that resonance is to open another window like the right rear one.
there are also aftermarket products available, such as wind deflectors or rain guards, that can help reduce buffeting and noise while driving with the window open. These accessories are designed to redirect airflow away from the interior of the vehicle, providing a smoother and quieter experience.

I really like the window shade from ford. Like the thing that they don't extend out like others and got to use pass points to purchase.

Those look great, but like others stated, I won’t use a stick-on product. I don’t want 3M tape on my Maverick

I’m not saying that it’s wrong, only that I wouldn’t do it.

I got the same ones for the exact same reason. I really want to avoid the double-sided tape as much as possible. I do like the flush look of the Ford versions. Other than the double sided tape to apply them, I'm not a fan of how they extend beyond the window opening.
Couldn't you trim the opposite and then it would match window opening? Not the best solution but I'm hip on the look you're describing also.

That's a possibility. I haven't seen the items in person, but if they are anything like the EGR version, my biggest concern is chipping them while trying to trim them and not being able to get a smooth line.
